What is Corporate Tax Reconsideration in the UAE?

Reconsideration of corporate tax is an official procedure by which a taxpayer may petition to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) for re-examining its decision on CT issues. If you feel the FTA's decision on your tax penalties, liabilities, or assessments is unjust, you can request a reconsideration.

The FTA considers these applications and will reconsider its decision if your argument is deemed valid, with transparency, fairness, and rectification of any administrative fault.

Who Is Eligible to Make an Appeal for Reconsideration?

Taxpayers: Anybody or a company impacted by an FTA decision
Authorized Tax Agents: Registered professionals/spokespersons acting on behalf of your company
Legal Representatives: People legally authorized to act on your behalf
